The CVT fluid filler tube broke where the braket is, about 12 inches broke off. Dont know how long its been broken, I found it when I was changing the Electronic Throttle Body. This has happened to a lot of autos in the Chrysler family. Go to any Chrysler auto forum, I guarantee this will be something that has happened to 1 if not more people. Just google "broken cvt fluid filler tube" and it will all come up. This has to be a manufacture defect. Happening to too many people. They break at the same place, the bracket, no warning light indicator....nothing! It is usually found when something else is being done under the hood, then you see the broken piece just laying there. Thanking the Lord you and your family are ok, because had this piece of metal tubing broke off and went flying anything could have happened. This situation has not been confirmed by a dealer or independent service center nor has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance rep. I am providing pictures of the piece that broke off. I bought the vehicle used in July 2021, have had my vehicle serviced twice and noone has ever noticed the broken tube, I had to replace my battery in October 2021never noticed the broken piece. Only until I personally replaced the Electronic Throttle Body did I find the broken tube. And that was done yesterday Feb 19, 2022.

I have a 2013 jeep patriot and the engine and temperature light comes on; on top on that it starts to decrease in speed slowing down out of nowhere I just started financing this vehicle and read reviews that others are having the same problem on repeat spending a lot of money on trying to repair the same issues. It's definitely a hazard that is not a solid fix. Hopefully me reaching out can help my problem and others. I am using this vehicle for work so it is very important that it's safe and secures my finances as well.

Checkengine light came on while driving on a back road. I had a diagnostic check done, being told that I have not one but two catalytic converters and my front catalytic converter is bad and needs replaced. Per the jeep dealership, this is a problem with the patriots and many have been recalled, just not mine, how can this be?I lost power for a bit, cut car off and then back on, smell eggs and burn a lot of gasoline

While driving on the highway my check engine light came and has remained on. I am being told I need a new catalytic converter but the dealership and crystler customer service are all confused as to why my vehicle is not showing up under a recall. It is the right make, model, year and engine size for the catalytic converter recall.
